This invention involves a kind of stannic
oxide microballoon with controllable
crystallite dimension and its preparation method and application. This stannic
oxide microballoon is composed of stannic
oxide microcrystal with fine
crystallinity through self-
assembly. The grain size of stannic oxide microcrystal is adjustable within range of 5-30nm. The
diameter of stannic oxide microballoon is 200-400nm and its specific surface area >40m2 / g; During preparation, add concentrated
hydrochloric acid and
tin source into the
mixed solution of normal propyl
alcohol and water in order, forming the transparent homogeneous solution; Conduct
solvothermal reaction; After the reaction ends, take out the
sediment, wash and separate it. Being compared with the
current technology, this invention has simple and easy process
route, which does not need surface
active agent. And the multilevel structure Sno2 microballoon with equally distributed dimension can be gotten through one-
step method, which is composed of stannic oxide microcrystal through self-
assembly. Also, the dimension of Sno2 microcrystal can be adjusted and controlled through adjusting the
alcohol / water proportion in the
reaction system. The microballoon has features of high specific area and submicron level dimension, which has wide application prospect in areas of
solar cell,
lithium ion battery and
photocatalysis.
